The Best Robot Vacuum That Mops

Noah Pinsonnault works as a product analyst for Good Housekeeping's Home Care and Cleaning Lab.

He evaluates and tests cleaning appliances, focusing on robot vacuums and mopping combos. Multitaskers are an excellent choice for those who want to eliminate mopping from their list of tasks. They are equipped with impressive mapping capabilities and obstacles-avoiding capabilities, and some even wash and refill their mopping pads to ensure a hands-free clean.

The Eufy S1 Pro

If you're looking for a robotic vacuum that also mop, this is the model to go for. It's smaller than the other options on this list making it easier to navigate in tight corners and under furniture. It features a 220 degree lidar, which when combined with its 3D Matrix camera system gives it the best automatic vacuum cleaner navigation and object avoidance that I've ever seen in a robot vacuum. It's powered by a 4600mAh battery that can last up to 170 minutes if mopping and sucking are set to standard mode. (It can be more efficient when using turbo). It can even return to its dock to replenish its battery during the cleaning.

It is very fast and does an excellent job of cleaning my two bedroom apartment. It vacuums the carpeted rooms incredibly quickly and hardwood floors in the living room, and hallways in a single sweep. The suction motor's 8,000pa will quickly pick up dirt, crumbs, and pet hair. Carpet detection automatically increases power when it detects rugs and the double side brush helps to remove debris from corners.

The mopping efficiency, while still impressive, is not as good. The mop's rotating motor spins at a high speed and it pushes down with 2.2lbs of force, effortlessly scraping away dirt and staining. I've noticed that the front arm protrudes out a bit more than other robots. This is useful when you're trying to get into narrow corners or along baseboards. The same front arms can be used to clean larger pieces of debris, such as broken toys and books.

The S1 Pro is also one of the quietest robot mops and vacuums I've tried. It doesn't make the same volume of sound when mopping or vacuuming and is quieter than the Narwal Freo X Ultra or RoboRock S7. The S1 Pro is only limited by the fact that it needs to use a proprietary mopping solution and is sold separately. It is easy to set up, and it works well. However when you purchase this robot vacuum for mopping it is important to be aware of this.

The Roborock Q Revo

The Q Revo stands apart from most robot vacuums that mops in its class. It is a powerful cleaner with a wide range of features.

The device comes with a powerful cleaning system that combines LiDAR sensor technology with an RGB camera. This allows it to map out the home and also find furniture and other obstacles. This information can be used to clean efficiently and methodically. This ensures an efficient and consistent cleaning, while also being relatively quick.

The Q Revo DuoRoller mop pad is capable of reaching many surfaces. These include corners or baseboards, as well as other hard-to-reach areas. The side brush can be stretched out to reach the floor near to the walls or other fixtures. The mop pads are also washable and can be dried to reduce odors and prevent buildup.

App-based customization is yet another noteworthy feature. The Q Revo allows you to adjust the strength of suction, and choose between a back-andforth, or a more random patterns. You can also set the number of passes it must make, which will determine how fast the device will move through your home. You can also decide to disable the side brush to avoid damaging carpets and rugs.

It's expensive, but it comes with a lot of smart features. However, it's important to remember that it carries periodic costs in the form of mopping supplies and maintenance. For instance brushrolls need to be replaced every six to 12 months or after 300 hours. The filter should be cleaned after 150 hours, and the mop pads should be changed every one to three months.

This robotic vacuum cleaner is a top Amazon rating and includes many physical automation features. It has an energy button that serves as a general "Clean' button and a 'Home button that sends it back to its base station once it has completed the cleaning process. It also comes with a multi-functional dock that automatically empty the dustbin, refills its water tank for mopping and washes and dries its mop pads.

The Shark Matrix Plus

If you're a busy professional or someone who just wants to have a clean home without spending much time doing chores, the Shark Matrix Plus is a good option. It has powerful performance, intelligent navigation, and a long battery life that makes it simple to keep your home tidy with little effort.

The Matrix Plus is a 2-in-1 robot vacuum cleaner uk vacuum and mop that is, it can do both vacuuming and mopping. The best robot vacuum cleaner and mop comes with two modules: a dry bin and water reservoir, and a separate mopping unit with microfiber pads that snap in and out of place. It's a little old-fashioned to have separate modules for mopping and vacuuming, but it does mean that you don't have to worry about changing disposable bags or refilling the tank of water.

Our test participants discovered that the Matrix Plus did a great job of vacuuming as well as mopping. Its most impressive feature is its accurate floorplan map, which it employs when cleaning. The Matrix Plus was able to navigate easily through rugs, furniture and other obstacles. The app also gives you the option to set 'No-Go zones' and virtual barriers, which can help to keep specific areas of your home from being cleaned with mop.

The Matrix Plus also did a remarkable job at picking up hair of pets. It was able to capture a lot of the hair that shed by our cats, and even got into some of the nooks and crannies of our stairs, where other robots had struggled. It was silent and also had a few nice jingles that let you know when it was starting or completing its task.

The biggest flaws were its simplistic app and the requirement to switch out the modules whenever switching between vacuuming and mopping. The app can't save multiple maps. This can be an issue if your home has multiple floors. The Matrix Plus is a good option for those who want a smart robot that can perform both mopping and vacuuming.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni robot vacuum is the most expensive of our review. However, it does have certain unique features that are worth a look. The X1 Omni is notable for its massive dock that doubles as a charging base for the robot, a cleaning sink and two 4-liter water tanks. It also houses the 2.5-liter dust bin as well as the 2.5 liter dust bin.

The base also has a number of buttons to control the system. These allow you to start a cleaning task, recall the robot, or start the dock's auto-emptying process. Hold down two buttons to switch off the child lock. This is a great feature for parents who are worried about their children messing around with the vacuum.

The X1 Omni like other robotic vacuums uses its camera to detect furniture and obstacles in its path. It will steer clear of them. True Mapping 2.0 navigation maps your home up to four times faster than laser detection systems.

This can cause the X1 to become stuck when it gets caught in a hazard like the power cable that is draped over a rug. It will not work until you manually untangle it. Although this is not a common occurrence but it was a very frustrating experience when it did happen and especially because the X1 Omni does not come with an "stuck" status alert in its application.

The X1 Omni cannot automatically switch between mopping and vacuuming mode during cleaning. You'll need to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't too bad but mopping pads don't get cleaned or dried between uses. This can cause mildew and mold.

On the bright side it's worth noting that the X1 Omni is a beautiful-looking robot, thanks to the design team at Jacob Jensen (of Bang & Olufsen fame) who came up with its sleek, modern-looking base and mopping pad apparatus. It's a huge departure from the utilitarian all-black bases of rivals such as Roborock or iRobot. It's also a welcome sight for the market that is dominated by boxy models.
